Michelle Williams Breaks Her Silence
|
NEW YORK (AP) -- Actress Michelle Williams broke her silence today, saying her ``heart is broken'' over Heath Ledger in her first statement since the ``Brokeback Mountain'' actor's death.
 The 27-year-old actress and Ledger became a couple during filming of 2005's ``Brokeback,'' in which they costarred as husband and wife. They later settled in New York, and had a daughter, Matilda, born in October, 2005.
Williams said in a statement that she is ``the mother of the most tender-hearted, high-spirited, beautiful little girl who is the spitting image of her father. All that I can cling to is his presence inside her that reveals itself every day.''
Ledger died in his Manhattan apartment January 22. Authorities suspect a possible drug overdose, but the cause of the 28-year-old actor's death is still pending the outcome of toxicology tests.
